"I actually didn't have the worry, right when I first accepted, but of course as time goes by and you start to train and people are like be careful," Assuncao told MMAWeekly.com. "Because people tell be careful with the decision, you're going to go to Sacramento."

Who doesn't think that way about judges. Favoritism has been shown in the past (Bisping over Hammil)and BJJ isn't usually favored over wrestling in the US because of the perception of what is a dominant position. Either way it's bad to be training for a decision anyways, just win the fight any way that you can and keep it out of the judges hands to begin with and then you have nothing to worry about.
